Mergers and Acquisitions
Reid and Riege’s transactional practice is local, regional, national, and international in scope. We represent the full range of for profit and nonprofit business clients, from traditional manufacturers and distribution companies to technology companies to health care institutions and service providers of all types. We also represent private equity funds, venture capital investors, individuals interested in acquiring or becoming co-owners of businesses, and all manner of finance sources and other institutional and individual investors. Sellers, buyers, entrepreneurs, investors, and lenders—we provide them all with experienced and creative counsel to assist them in executing their plans.
Our Mergers and Acquisitions attorneys have experience with the full spectrum of business ownership change transactions, from straightforward purchases and sales to mergers, management buy-outs, ESOP formations, and leveraged transactions. We are also experienced in acquisitions and divestitures on behalf of private equity and mezzanine funds, venture capital firms, and other investors. We also advise on acquisition financing, from traditional bank commercial financings to creative equity, debt, and mezzanine investments.
In conjunction with our Bankruptcy and Insolvency attorneys, we also represent buyers seeking to acquire businesses that are in bankruptcy. Assisted by our Health Care and Nonprofit Organization attorneys, we are involved in transactions shaping the future of health care and the increasingly sophisticated nonprofit world. With our extensive network of correspondence firms through the TAGLaw Network, we can provide experienced counsel for transactions anywhere in the United States and throughout the world.
We operate on a team and cross-disciplinary basis, with the core team of members of the Corporations and Business Organizations Practice Area and the involvement of attorneys from other Practice Areas as needed. These often include Tax, Employee Benefits and Pension, Environmental, Land Use, Estate Planning, and Succession Planning.
